I’ve been building the V5 SpeedBot and when I include the flat bearing none of the screws attach to the frame (at the bearing). The problem goes away when I delete the bearings. I made this project to illustrate the problem.

Hi Joyce.
I did some fiddling around and got a version that works: https://www.robotmesh.com/studio/60a4397cd2cf776482cfec2c
Looks like the physics solver doesn’t like it when a screw passes entirely through a bearing flat, and contacts both a large and a small snap point. I don’t know of a workaround for this issue. As a result, I don’t think you can build an exact copy of the V5 speedbot.
Cheers, Sam.
I suspected something was going on with the physics engine.
Thanks for following up Sam!
